14 bolt front

[chadburgin]

who has made them, if anyone, and what would be pros/cons? also what year did chevy start the extra cooling vents on the outside of the 14b housing? i have 3 older ones with no vents and was just wondering
disregaurd the first ? about the 14 front. i rephrased my wording and got that info on a search.

Those aren't cooling fins :rolleyes:

They are ribbed for your strength... duh :D


No really they are ribbed for strenght, and came mostly in motorhomes and tow trucks.


edit: saw you said cooling vents.... do you mean literally a VENT? like a diff. breather.. ? Seems like another way for foreign objects to get in ur axle to me.

um no i didnt mean open vents:rolleyes: i meant the more metal something has the better it will distribute heat and i just figured thats what they were there for. does the 14 bolt need to be any stronger:flipoff2:
